This months Villages Whiners Club meeting will be Thursday at 7 pm at Seabreeze Recreation. Half the members complained this was too early and half complained it was too late, so it must be just right.

After our general discussion of whether the room is too hot or too cold we will discuss and vote on our annual top complaints of the year. Here are some to get your whiner juices flowing (in no particular order, so don’t blame me):

1. Dog poop / dogs off leash
2. Evil developer / growth (we all know growth should stop after we moved here)
3. Apartments (how could they even consider building these!)
4. Hospitals (it will take at least a half hour to discuss all the bad experiences)
5. Cars / Carts speeding
6. Snowbirds
7. Amenity fees
8. Movie theaters (a new one on the list!)
9. People at pools (how dare they come at the same time as me!)
10. Bicyclists
12. Gates
13. Golfers

I am sure there are more but we only have an hour and a half at the meeting. So only bring your best. After the meeting we plan to meet at the Sandhill Executive course on the 9th green at 9 pm to howl at the moon (if it even dares to show its face). Of course if it is storming we will use the time to complain about the weather. Now go out there and ruin someone’s week. See ya on Thursday night.

Sea breeze rec Center? This club would fill up the polo grounds.

You forgot to add to the agenda
The amenity fee increase
Parking at Spanish springs
The cost of a burger
The drunks at the squares
Golf car speeding
Roof replacement
Dry grass.

I don't like the decor and theme of SeaBreeze. And it's always too cold in there.

Whiners have been complaining about being called whiners so there is a mandatory reading of The Sky is Falling.

Henny-Penny: The Sky is Falling! (https://americanliterature.com/childrens-stories/henny-penny-the-sky-is-falling)

Members will be given the opportunity to name each other from the cast i.e. Henny-penny, Cocky-locky, Ducky-daddles, Goosey-poosey, and Turkey-lurkey," "Foxy-woxy;

New names can be chosen to match whiners i.e Larky-parky, Looney-poopy

I love it!!😂. Don’t forget folks walking with their back to bicycles and golf carts when walking on pathways and golf cart roads, its a personal favourite of mine as I prefer to face traffic when I am walking. 😒😂. I do love living in, “The Villages” though.♥️

I've only been in The Villages for five years, but this place has changed so much in such a short period that it's really a shame. The developer has used Covid as an excuse to eliminate or alter many quality of life issues. I don't think your post is funny; it sounds like you're a troll working for the Morse family.

Poor GE that has to be mildly inconvenienced by having to navigate around workers that are busting their asses in the heat, to complete projects they’re hired to do. But by all means, hopefully the local law enforcement will crack down so you’re not inconvenienced. UFB.

I thought this was a whining thread.

That being said, it's all fun and games until someone gets killed because of the safety aspect of parking in a lane of moving traffic. Last week I saw a narrow miss when a golf cart had to pull into the car lane at the same time a car pulled out from a side street. Neither could see each other because of the large vehicle blocking the cart lane. If they just parked it there to unload something large or heavy, it would be one thing, but I've seen them park there for 8 hours straight. If a vehicle parked in a lane of I-75 would you defend that as well??????

You’re comparing a contractor parked in The Villages to a vehicle stopped on I-75? Do you realize how ludicrous that sounds. But hey, you win! Haa

It really bothered me when the place expanded southern of 44. I really like the bike paths down here but the developer is so greedy to keep growing. Seems like all they want is more money. I sold my last house and made a fortune so I moved in a new house down south and hope I can do it again. They don’t have enough restaurants down south. Would think the developer could plan a little better.

No, it's ABSOLUTELY the same thing---just different speeds involved. I'm probably just as guilty as the next person, but my gestalt is that everyone expects convenient parking, everywhere, but many will park illegally to get it. Not only contractors in a moving lane of traffic, but those who park in a handicapped spot or a fire lane. They all have excuses for their illegal parking, and it really is no big deal----UNTIL----an accident occurs as a result. Or a fire truck is blocked. Or a truly handicapped person collapses from walking too far. Or etc., etc., etc. So make fun of my pet peeve (whine on a whining thread) all you want, let's just hope no one is seriously injured while you are doing so.

I get the point of this thread, and I agree.

However, when has it ever been that people didn't spend more time complaining about things. The Daily Sun is all positive -- maybe they could sponsor a Positive Talk Of The Villages Forum (PTOTV) -- for every violation, you get an amenities fee increase.

Each person would start their thread with an affirmation of devotion, like;

Morning fellow lovers of fun, sun, and all things Morse.

Or, have I told you about my favorite actress, Megan Boone -- she's a peach.

Trump is awesome, sure, but have you ever had the Rueben at the Harvest restaurant -- to die for!
